Lost in Time: Begnagrad – Begnagrad
A highly technical but non-snobby and at moments even humorous avant-prog album from Yugoslavia laced with Balkan and alpine folk influences. Nonsense at its best!
Review: Growth – The Smothering Arms of Mercy
A claustrophobic exploration of hope and suffering through tight, ferocious death metal.
Review: Maladie – The Grand Aversion
An uncomfortable ride into the depths of black metal avant-garde – Maladie is sure to leave you flabbergasted!
Review: Convulsif – Extinct
Imagine spinning a wheel with 8 genres on it, the wheel breaking, and deciding you can probably get a bit of each of them into an instrumental album just to be safe.
Review: Gargoyl – Gargoyl
Here is that love child of Alice in Chains and Opeth that you didn’t know you needed.
Review: Kekal – Quantum Resolution
Do you like black metal, vocaloid and trap beats, but thanks to the hectic modern world, you only have time to listen to one album? Hey… Kekal.
Review: Neptunian Maximalism – Éons
An otherworldly two hour experience of drone, jazz, and avant-garde
Review: Pensées Nocturnes – Grand Guignol Orchestra
Black Metal! Clowns! Wait, what?
Review: Quercus – Verferum
Long, daring, and with an unexpected (yet welcome) organ.
Review: ISA – Chimera
A really intense dream, that’s extremely vivid and real while happening, but you forget it as soon as it’s over.
